LONELY PLANET – BME IS AN INTERESTING ATRACTION

Lonely Planet, the world’s most prestigious travel guide, was founded by Tony and Maureen Wheeler in 1973. after their trip to Asia. That same year they released their publication “Across Asia on the Cheap”. This was followed by new journeys and new publications, with the aim of transferring their experience to all those who are willing to travel. Except propensity to travel, they obviously have a sense for business, which is why Lonely Planet opened its office in Oakland (California) in 1984., launched its own magazine “Lonely Planet magazine” in 2014. and launched a mobile application “Guides” in 2017. which has already reached over one million downloads. It is this world authority on tourism topics, that recently published a “list of 10 most desirable European destination for year 2017.”, and how Jutarnji list states, as of 24th of May, Zagreb took on the first place on the that list. A nice compliment for our capital, but also to BACKO MINI EXPRESS, which Lonely Planet listed as an inevitable attraction of Zagreb, which tourists should definitely visit.

ELECTIONS FOR THE TRAIN OF THE YEAR

As the month of May is marked by the elections this year we, in BACKO MINI EXPRESS, decided to give our contribution to the exciting atmosphere of the vote. As we are not a political party, we decided to use the alternative, ie. Locomotive elections, elections that, thanks to the voices of our visitors on the day 05.21.2017., should bring out the most beautiful locomotive year of year 2017. The preparation itself wasn’t easy. In addition to the organization of elections and defining the voting, selecting prizes, picking the time and place of counting the votes and drawing the lucky winners of the valuable prizes (annual family tickets for the tour of the railway model), it was not easy picking only 5 of 155 locomotives. That is how many there are in the largest scale model of South-Eastern Europe. Each locomotive, as it should, received appropriate election publicity in the form of a short video, distributed to all known media channels.

Our wish is that these elections become a tradition, so that on that day, by giving visitors the option of free tours of the model, we give our contribution to the quality of family gatherings. Of course, grandparents are welcome too!
